Our Community

Since our inception in 1996, we have focused on our social, environmental, and economic responsibilities. We believe in being good neighbours and giving back to the community where we live, work and play, and that business has an obligation to be a positive contributor to society. Although we are a small company, over the past six years, we have given back well over $133,037 in cash and $102,762 in food donations to help enrich our community.

Charitable Donations:

Annually, we donate a minimum of 5% of our profits to community projects that have a positive, lasting impact on the environment and/or youth. We focus our charitable donations in these two areas because we believe they provide the fundamental building blocks for future generations. We contribute to local charities, educational programs, and advocacy initiatives that support:

The environment through:

Organic farmers, farmland, and farming practices

Local food initiatives

Environmental footprint improvements

Nature preservation

Community youth initiatives

Are you, or do you know of, a grassroots organization that might benefit from a donation? If so, we'd like to know. Email our coordinator, or send us a brochure. You will be contacted as soon as your submission has been reviewed. Some of the charities and organizations we are proud to be involved with:

Volunteering:

Beyond supporting our community with money and product donations, we feel it’s also very important to invest our personal time and effort. We provide each of our employees with three paid days off per year to volunteer in the community.
